489 Riddell Road, Glendowie, Auckland City, Auckland Luxurious 6-Star Masonry

Feel the silky serenity as you move through the flowing spaces of this breath-taking home in the most exquisite private waterfront setting. With huge views over a heated infinity pool to the Hauraki Gulf, the solid masonry residence by MDS was completed to a masterful Zen-like design in 2016.

Anchored by Palisade retaining walls, it was built in a majestic arc to wrap around the water, focusing on islands of the Gulf. Internal walls are plastered in an earthy hue, and gently curve for a soft, grounded feeling. The design by a Japanese Feng Shui master allows clean air to circulate, enhancing positive energy, vitality and flow.

Although it celebrates the beauty of nature, the property is like a 6-star hotel resort, packing in luxuries including a home automation system, a lift, heated Italian limestone and timber floors, auto-flush toilets with heated seats, HRV and surround sound.

A generous foyer gives a taste of what's to come in a series of indoor and outdoor living and dining areas which present multiple cliffside casual and formal entertaining options. A large lounge/home theatre has a projector and drop-down screen. A magnificent kitchen with scullery plus a stack of Miele ovens and a built-in coffee machine, invites you to sit at one of the biggest marble islands you have ever seen.

Upstairs, 4 large bedrooms include a sumptuous master wing with walk-in closet and a luxurious bathroom plus a separate wc with 2nd toilet. There's a double mosaic tiled shower and the gorgeous stone bath pares with stone basins on the vanity. A study nook is just the place to escape to work with a view. A 2nd suite also has its own study.

With triple car garaging and loads of secure parking, this property is an absolute treat for your eyes only. Take sanctuary in a family masterpiece like no other.
